Mine's bad too. But times at a premium and I find it quicker to highlight with highlighter and jot notes in the margins with a pen.

And I jot a lot of notes as my goal is to never have to thoroughly read a scholarly article a second time, but be able to skim and look at my notes and highlights.

Same thing when I was a student and marking up books like crazy to study.

Some could certainly get by with finger touch probably. But I'd think stylus support would be preferred by most, given how much highlighting and note taking in the margins I see in my student's text books when they stop by with them to ask a question about something in the readings!
